Notice Where The Snow Is Not Melting
This image of an exterior roof corresponds directly with the interior ceiling view
of the same building, illustrated below. The insulation products used: Fiberglass
batt- 10” thick and P2000- ½ inch thick.
Note that white strips of un-melted snow are clearly seen on the roof. The pattern
corresponds directly with the duct runs – insulated exclusively with P2000 Insulation.
The dark areas on the roof indicate heat-loss and melting – and these areas are
insulated with 10” of fiberglass batting. This image was taken at 1 pm in the afternoon.
One would expect that the rafters containing the heating ducts would be more likely
to show signs of heat-loss. But the P2000 proved effective in containing that heat.
Instead it was the rest of the roof/ceiling that proved it was unable to contain
all the heat from the building.
The inside photo shows a ceiling insulated mostly with 10” of fiberglass insulation
placed between rafters. The rafter spaces containing heating ducts, however, were
lined with P2000 Insulation.
You could be experiencing excessive heat loss through your heat ducts. Use P2000
to remedy this problem by wrapping your ducts.

P2000 insulation – even in very limited space – proved to be the more effective
insulator.
